Mark Rothko on the "recipe of a work of art," lecture at the Pratt Institute, 1958:

There must be a clear preoccupation with death—intimations of mortality… Tragic art, romantic art, etc. deals with the knowledge of death.

Sensuality. Our basis of being concrete about the world. It is a lustful relationship to things that exist.

Tension. Either conflict or curbed desire.

Irony. This is a modern ingredient—the self effacement and examination by which a man for an instant can go on to something else.

Wit and Play..for the human element.

The ephemeral and chance…for the human element.

Hope. 10% to make the tragic concept more endurable.

getting older is all about getting weirder and sexier and more perverted and gluttonous and intelligent and blunt and eloquent and spontaneous and skilled. i love that for us.

“Find out what makes you kinder, what opens you up and brings out the most loving, generous, and unafraid version of you―and go after those things as if nothing else matters. Because, actually, nothing does.”
